“Everyone is a Beginner” Filmmaker Gary Hustwit Wants You to be a VR Pioneer, By Eric Alt

When documentary filmmaker Gary Hustwit received his cardboard VR headset from the New York Times about a year ago, he didn’t know it would send him on a career tangent he’s still pursuing.

“Everyone who is creating in this space is essentially a beginner,” Hustwit told the crowd as he took the stage at the 2016 Fast Company Innovation Festival on Tuesday. “It’s not going to replace traditional filmmaking, it’s not better or worse, it does something different. And it’s still in its infancy.”
